Or right. Or center. Whatever. Supply your own metaphor. While others seem too polite to speak, my sometime pal Ramesh lays the wood to Judy Shelton, one of President Trump’s two new picks for the Federal Reserve, to wit: “Trump’s choice for the Fed Board is now disavowing some of her terrible economic ideas. It's hard to believe her.”
As Ramesh crisply explains, the “old” Judy had lots of bad ideas. Her new ones, custom-tailored to meet Donald Trump’s Trumpian appetite for unrestrained economic expansion, are even worse. Unfortunately (for us), Judy, unlike Trump’s previous, failed picks, probably doesn’t have a past record of sexual harassment.
